Inca Prophecy

An eerie clue to the Inca Prophecy lies hidden in a tomb near the ancient city of Machu Picchu. The prophecy itself is concealed deep in the Amazon jungle, amongst the ruins of Paititi, the Lost City of the Inca. Disaffected CIA agent Curtis O'Connor and Guatemalan archaeologist Dr Aleta Weizman are convinced a mysterious crystal skull, discovered near the Inca Trail, will lead them to it. Thousands of kilometres away, the Pope lies gravely ill in the Vatican and Cardinal Felici, a key contender for the Papacy, is anxious to return to Rome.

The Alexandria Connection

A New World Order is upon us ...In the shifting desert sands of Egypt, rumours abound of a lost papyrus that will reveal the true purpose of the Pyramids of Giza. Could these ancient monoliths be the source of a new kind of energy, one that comes at no cost to the planet? CIA agent Curtis O'Connor and archaeologist Aleta Weizman are determined to find out.Close by, a shadowy and powerful group known as Pharos meets in Alexandria, its membership a closely guarded secret.

The Beijing Conspiracy

The countdown has begun... The message on the Al-Jazeera television network is chilling. Dr Muhammad Bashir, the mastermind behind some of al-Qaeda's most deadly bombings against the West and a close confidant of Osama Bin Laden, has warned of a single horrific biological attack on civilization. There is no cure for what al-Qaeda threatens to unleash, and there are no vaccines.

The Templar Legacy

The ancient order of the Knights Templar possessed untold wealth and absolute power over kings and popes until the Inquisition, when they were wiped from the face of the earth, their hidden riches lost. But now two forces vying for the treasure have learned that it is not at all what they thought it was, and its true nature could change the modern world.

Seven Ancient Wonders: Jack West Junior, Book 1

Thousands of years ago, a magnificent golden capstone sat atop the Great Pyramid of Giza. It was a source of immense power, capable of bestowing upon its holder absolute global rule for a thousand years...

The Sphinx Scrolls: The Ballashiels Mysteries, Book 1

Mayan legends tell of a location where the secret to surviving the end of the world may be found. One part of that legend is recorded on a stone tablet in the dusty attic of Lord 'Ratty' Ballashiels' crumbling manor. The other twin part disappeared from a Berlin museum when the Nazis took power. When Ratty seems about to sell his tablet to the adopted son of Josef Mengele, his friend, the archaeologist Ruby Towers, is appalled. Soon it is clear that more than archaeology is at stake.

Publisher's Summary

The Maya Codex is a dynamic thriller about the search for a mysterious object from an ancient culture, and a riveting doomsday conspiracy.

Deep in the Guatemalan jungle lies the Maya Codex, an ancient document containing a terrible warning for civilisation. Archaeologist Dr. Aleta Weizman is desperately searching for the codex, but powerful forces in Washington and Rome will do anything to stop her. When CIA agent Curtis O'Connor joins Aleta in her dangerous quest, he also becomes a target.

Both Weizman and O'Connor know that the earth will align with a massive black hole at the centre of the galaxy on the winter solstice, December 2012 - just as the Mayans predicted. Might a geographic pole shift be on the way? But if discovering the codex can avert this global catastrophe, why are some within the Vatican and the CIA determined it should never be found? The race is on for Weizman and O'Connor, and the very future of our planet is at stake.

From the corridors of power in Nazi Germany to modern-day Washington, from the secret archives of the Vatican to the Temple of the Lost World pyramid in the jungles of Central America, The Maya Codex takes us on a heart-stopping journey to find the codex before it's too late.

Cant bring myself to listen to this anymore, after just one hour iv had to switch off because the narrator is just too annoying with his put on German accent, cant even understand what he's trying to say! This is one book id recommend you buy to read not to listen to, totally has spoilt it for me and i'm annoyed iv used up a credit!!!

OK the 2012 "End of Times" stories are coming fast and furious now! That all said, this is one that is worth a credit. A fascinating mixture of Mayan history, Nazi Germany's odd ( and true but creepily messed up ) efforts to find their root, and modern military whack jobs, make this a sprawling, but compelling story. It touches alot of history and conspiracy theories ( maybe a few too many for one book, but that is a quibble ) and brings it all together at the end in a nice clean package.Narration is compelling as well. Lots of accents and characters to revel in, both good and nasty. I honestly thought that this was one of the better audio books I have hear in some time.

You might as well. Enjoy.

"Good writing needs good research and this has it"

d'Hage is certainly an accomplished writer and well worth the listen. The trouble is, his subject matter had a grain of 'possibility' before we passed a certain period of time. Now that time has passed and the predictive elements no longer apply and all becomes a bit whimsical. But the charters are rich and there is a level of plausibility that sits like a thin layer of cream on the milk jug. Make sure you listen to the three books in order and they will hold you like Clancy does (did).

"Fiction close to fact"

Adrain is a master of the art. His personal background as a decorated soldier probably lends to the insights he has shared with his readers. I would call this a modern version of James Bond with of course the necessary ingredient of romance. chilling accurate in his overview of much of the intrigue that goes on behind the scenes

"Attention grabbing - hang ups holding it back"

I would & will listen again and have recommend this story to family. Would definitely say my favourite thus far of Adrian D'Hage's would have to be Beijing Conspiracy & I do hope that we are treated to another title of this calibre. My only hesitation in giving this top marks is the hang up with the Church and the bishop abuse of kids. It made sense in Omega scroll but I now fear its detracting from the story and I have found it hard to pick up the next half of this series, Inca Prophecy, given this dark cloud that seems to hang over all titles.
